[69 Book Bar - www.] He Zhong looked at Bai Wei and Zi Liao in the car and said, "They are all women? Is it convenient to go there?"
I was startled and glanced at them unconsciously. Although they were wearing men's clothes, I could still tell that they were women at a glance. Now fifty thousand citizens have been released into the city. These people are also good citizens and they dare not do anything strange in the city. , once they leave the city, God knows what they will do. They are riding in a carriage, and they are afraid that they will be robbed as soon as they leave the city. If it were not reminded by He Zhong, I would not have thought of this.
Bai Wei said: "General, please don't worry about us, life is determined by fate, life and death are determined by heaven."
Her face still looked extremely calm. He Zhong was taken aback and said, "Aren't you afraid?"
Bai Wei said: "Of course I'm afraid, but there is always some hope."
He Zhong nodded and said, "Okay. I'll ask someone to take you out first. Wait."
He seemed to have remembered something and walked to a tent nearby. I didn't know what he was going to do, so I waited patiently. After a while, he came out holding a small bag and said: "You two ladies, if you can get there five Yangcheng, can you please hand this thing over to the city lord on my behalf?"
He Zhong still has contact with the city lord of Wuyang City? But I don’t want to think too much at this time. Bai Wei said: "Okay, I will definitely do it for the general."
He Zhong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't get there." He opened the small bag, and inside was a jade pendant and two waist knives. He said, "These two waist knives are for you to defend yourself. Please hand over this jade pendant." Give it to the city lord."
Bai Wei took it and I saluted He Zhong with one hand and said, "Thank you very much."
After sending them out, they saw a crowd of people escaping outside the city. Most of these people were in ragged clothes, and occasionally a few cried dryly. Maybe they had been frightened all day long, and finally saw a way out. They were so happy that they didn't know what to do. Okay. Looking at them, I can't help but have mixed feelings. If it weren't for the snake people, I'm afraid not many of them would have been able to escape. Thinking about this, they should be grateful to the snake people.
There is a main road across the moat outside the east gate, which was originally the official road leading directly to Wuyang City. This official road was in disrepair and was a bit bumpy, and the carriage was a little bumpy on it. Zi Liao felt a little uncomfortable, but Bai Wei was still Keep calm.
After walking for a while, there were fewer victims on the road, just a few here and there. Although the carriage was slow, it was still faster than these hungry and dizzy victims. I took the horse and said, "I have to go back, take care."
We had only been with them for a little more than a day, and there shouldn't have been any feelings of farewell. I turned the horse's head and suddenly heard Bai Wei say: "General! Wait!"
I stopped the horse and saw her jump out of the car and run towards me. I jumped off the horse and said, "What else can you do?"
She ran up to me, suddenly held my head and kissed me on the lips. Her face turned red, but she ran back without saying a word. As soon as she got into the carriage, she started to drive quickly, and the carriage was driven away by her. There was a loud crash, and I don't know what happened to the purple polygonum in the car.
I stretched out my fingers and touched my lips. There seemed to be the lingering fragrance of her lipstick on my lips. Although her soft lips just touched her very quickly, they seemed to have left a mark on my mouth. That carriage I drove faster and faster, and finally turned a corner and was obscured by a forest of trees, and could no longer be seen.
Let's go.
I said silently. I don't know what difficulties and dangers they will encounter on that road. I just hope that they can reach Wuyang City safely.
Back in the city, there were still a lot of people crowded at the east gate. Fifty thousand people wanted to leave the city, and it would take a while to rush out. Needless to say, they left one by one. I took the horse with me and walked from the east gate to the west gate.
go.
At first, there were hundreds of thousands of houses in the city, and there were winding alleys everywhere. It took a long time to get from the east gate to the west gate, but now they are all reduced to rubble. If you go straight through, you are much closer.
The center of the city is the People's Square, and next to it are the Chinese military camps. The center of the square was originally paved with large square bluestones, each of which was six feet square. Logically speaking, similar ones in other major cities
The square was called the Imperial Square, but after the first Cang Yue Gong built the city, it was named the National Square. This also foreshadowed the later rebellion. This square is known as the largest in the south. Each large stone slab is half a foot thick and polished.
It can be seen that even the imperial capital does not have such good stone slabs. Nowadays, these big stones are mottled with burns, and some have been burned. I don’t know how many corpses have been burned here these days. I really admire it.
Army, they can actually stay here despite the burning stench nearby.
There is a strange itching on my shoulder, which is almost unbearable. Ye Tai said that when the wound heals, there will be a bit of itching, so is it healing now? His medical skills are really amazing. It only lasted two days after I suffered this injury, and it healed so quickly.
The stab wound on his leg was originally a skin injury. He only bandaged it lightly. Now that it has been removed, it has only been two days and the scab has almost fallen off, leaving only a long scar on his leg.
Besides, there are no side effects.
With a medical officer like Ye Tai, this battle with the Republican Army could achieve such great results with such a small loss. I thought about it randomly, and at this time, I felt a chill on my face and a little wetness on my cheeks.
Are they my tears?
I touched my face, and my palms were a little wet, but I knew they were definitely not tears. Bai Wei's last kiss did make my heart move a little bit, but it didn't move me to that extent, and it wasn't like that to her.
I'm reluctant to leave, but just grateful. After all, I was a member of the Imperial Army that defeated Takaji Castle.
It's raining.
My body shook violently. The rainy season is about to begin in southern Xinjiang, so the originally planned tactic of using a wall of fire to block the troops when retreating cannot be used. What's more, if the snakemen attack at this time, what should we do?
Almost at the same time, shouts went out from all over the city, including people shouting at the top of their lungs: "The snake man is coming!"
Snake people have attacked the city many times so far. But this time it seemed like it was the end. Earthquake-like vibrations were heard everywhere, accompanied by people's cries. In the central military camp, several troops who were resting in the barracks also rushed
The Chinese army was divided into five battalions: Forward, Reebok, Iron Wall, Tongcheng, and Huwei. The forward battalion was the most elite, and the Reebok battalion was the strongest among the infantry. In the past, these two troops always charged in front when attacking, but now these two
The strongest unit has been reduced by half, and its combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced. It can only rely on the other three battalions to act as the main force. Today it is the turn of the Tongcheng Battalion to rest. The infantrymen who rushed out of the battalion were all in disorder.
They were also sorting out the looted property. I added a whip, passed through them, and rushed to the west city.
The Snake Men have not attacked the city for three days. Although the Reebok Camp's aerial fire attack failed, it must have made the Snake Men a little scared. They never expected that we were surrounded and dared to attack the city. This time, the Snake Men must also have discovered
It started to rain, so I seized this opportunity and launched another attack.
As soon as I ran to the west gate, I saw groups of soldiers gathered under the city wall, and they were marching up to the city one by one. Jin Qianshi was setting people on fire. When he saw me, he shouted: "General Chu is back!"
Many people in the Dragon Scale Army had not seen me before. At this time, they all knelt down and said: "Commander Chu."
If I hadn't recaptured Shen Xiping's head, these rebellious soldiers would certainly not be so convinced by me. I glanced at them and said, "Please get up. The war is about to begin, brothers, be more careful."
The Dragon Scale Army is also a cavalry army. There are not many horses in the first place, and the proportion of the horse army in the Fourth Army is also small. Even the 10,000-person team of King Chai Shengxiang, who killed the king, only has 3,000 cavalry troops, but the Dragon Scale Army has only 3,000 cavalry troops.
They all have war horses. The Dragon Scale Army already had only about 200 soldiers left. Marquis Wu ordered me to select soldiers to add to the Dragon Scale Army. Things were too urgent, so I only picked more than 100 soldiers. Now the entire army has 307 soldiers.
Everyone, including me. Because we were guarding the city, the horses were all tied up under the city.
We were about to go to the city when suddenly, a horse came galloping from the south of the city. After we were far away, we heard someone say on the horse: "Is the commander of the Dragon Scale Army here?"
That was the thunder drum. I reined in my horse and waited for the thunder drum to come over and said, "I am Chu Xiuhong, the commander of the Dragon Scale Army."
The thunder drum led the horse. The horse was running fast and could not stand still, but kept roaring. A few drops of rain were falling from time to time, but the man and the horse seemed to be caught together, and there was white steam all over their bodies.
Lei Gu shouted: "The commander of the Dragon Scale Army, Chu Xiuhong, is listening to the order. Marquis Wu has an order. There is an emergency at the north gate. The Dragon Scale Army is going to rescue it quickly. Go quickly!"
I was startled and said, "There are snake people outside the north gate too?" Lei Gu ignored me and ran towards the east gate quickly.
I looked at Jin Qianshi, and he also had a look of astonishment. I suddenly thought that Luo Jingwei had already withdrawn from the city, and if the snake men attacked at this time, it would be really bad. I shouted to Jin Qianshi: "Quickly leave!"
There is an avenue to the North Gate, which leads directly from the South Gate to the North Gate. We started from the West Gate, but we had to go through a small road. I led 300 people through a pile of broken bricks and rubble, and then we arrived at the avenue.
.
This avenue is known as the "Ten Horse Avenue", and ten horses can gallop side by side. Despite this disaster, the road paved with stone slabs is still very smooth. On this avenue, you can gallop.
As soon as I led the people onto the road, I heard the sound of horse hooves behind me like a storm. When I looked back, I saw Lu Gongxing leading the way and coming with the forward battalion.
What happened to Beimen?
While the horse was galloping, the rain began to fall heavily. Through the rain curtain, everything in front of me felt like a dream, with an ominous feeling.
